ICANN Approval for .BIZ and .INFO to limit domain tasting?

In order to limit domain tasting incase of .BIZ and .INFO TLD's. The respective registries made a proposal for changes in their registry contract. They requested with a set of modifications to ICANN, a few weeks ago and the modifications were approved and from now onwards none of the registrar cannot freely delete more than 50 Domain names (or) 10% of domain names "Which ever is greater" registered through them in these TLD's per month. There is no such statement added regarding the refund of registration fee for deleted domain names.

The AGP (Add Grace Period) is the time granted for .com domains to delete and get full refund with in 5 days (maximum). Most of the registrars used this to generate a lot of funds by placing adsense for domains to earn even in millions. Termed as domain Tasting. A law suit was filed against Google and ICANN and at the same time Google updated its policies for adsense on domains they added few terms as such no ads will be provided for domains of age less than 5 days and ICANN introduced a fee if the domains deleted and deletion will not be more than 10% when asked for refund. and a small fee is charged for deleting domain names to limit domain tasting

Now the same situation of domain tasting is followed by registrars in other extensions. As .com tasting is limited the registrars jumped in to other extensions like .info and .biz. They started to register a lot of domain names and delete them if they didn’t satisfy parked earnings, the same with 5 days. It creates an unnecessary confusion for real buyers, as the domain not available for registration five days ago is still unregistered. Is there any fault in registry database (or) any scam to suck funds from them like that, These tasting registrations are useless and causes unnecessary load on registry databases. ICANN tries its best and acts fast in this regard to limit Domain Tasting.
